dc.description.abstractThe mean of haemoglobin concentration in 335 cord blood samples was 16.0 g/dl 2.6 S.D. The haemoglobin concentration was lower from the mean by more than 2 S.D. (10.8g/dl) in 10 (2.9%) neonates. Extra-corpuscular factors are the main cause of anaemia in the newborn. a-Thalessaemia is absent or extremely rare in the Maltese. Haemoglobin F Malta I was was detected in 1.6 percent of 2600 cord bloods screened by starch gel electrophoresis. One child had the double heterozygozity for haemoglobin F Malta I and 8-thalassaemia. So long as Haemoglobin F Malta I is not detected in these cases, the G locus must be assumed to be suppressed in 8-thalassaemia.en_GB
